I'll be excited about this if:
#1: It's not first person.
#2: It's not suscription based.

It's rather disheartening for me to learn that Splash Damage are developing the online portion of the new Batman. Brink was complete and utter travesty. I have very low expectations for the Batman MP now.

@Legendary-boss I actually enjoyed the multiplayer in the Last of Us, and while the single player campaign outshone it, the mp is still a fun experience and it's obvious that Naughty Dog spent a good about of designing it.

@get2sammyb The Piri Piri Pot Noodle advert is pretty genius though.

I'm actually pretty glad about this delay. It means someone else can buy it for me for my birthday instead of me buying it for myself

@Lelouch Don't worry about me I was just being melodramatic! I'm sure they'll be some sort of Vita showing, probably not as much as we'd like but..

@ViciousDS I think anyone who plays alot of games, watches alot of films or reads alot of books or does anything in which there is choice is bound to compare things. Why else would we be interested in what reviewers have to say. Also I asked if Killzone would have the same potential as Halo as a system seller etc, not if it is better.

@get2sammyb Do you think that Killzone has the potential to be what Halo was the the O.G Xbox? Will it have the "last of us effect" of people telling all their friends how amazing it is, sparking massive sales? Or is it more a solid game, where you can't fault it but it misses that special something?
I'm not really an fps person these days but as I see it if there was a game to bring in the chump masses it would be Killzone over Knack or something. So i'm a bit curious to know whether you feel it could be a Sony savior or just a soggy biscuit.

I want them have a good vita showing, as do most people. They won't.
"We told you we didn't forget about vita, so coming this fall... Angry Birds! and for those of you who can't get enough... Angry Birds: Star Wars edition"

I wonder if they're planning on optimising the vita interface too. A few things like adding swip to delete individual files in the video app, or moving the bottom file in the list up when using the copy or delete button. Little things like that would just make the Vita more sleek to use.

Is that 32MB dedicated for the OS?
I'm actually glad that the ps4 OS is getting a decent chunk, as much as I love my ps3 it's just so cumbersome.

How much ram does the X1 have and how much is dedicated to the OS?

Is there a goal? E.g. save the princess.

I actually played the original an inordinate amount of time, and as excited as I am to see the title, I must admit it doesn't really give the same feeling that the original did. Perhaps something was lost in the 3d translation. That said said the new art style is very pretty so perhaps the game will attract lots of new players as well as us nostalgia hunters.

Still hoping the title will be great though. Along with Ducktales I'm hoping for a rollercoaster ride down memory lane.

Disney's Sega Aladdin game could be a pretty fun remaster thinking about it.

xbone water cooler.

I watched the trailer.. liked it... then saw it was freemium... no longer interested. Congrats Beatshapers on losing out on a potential customer.

Lets be honest... The game does very little to showcase the ps4. It looks like it could easily be a ps3 game. That said, having a wide and varied launch title base can only benifit Sony. It's a shame they didn't try to focus on a new IP that really pushes the boat out.

Personally I cannot stand free to play games with in app purchases, designed to make the player feel like they're not getting the most enjoyment possible out of the game unless they make additional purchases. Give me one-time-buy experiences anyday!

From a developer perspective though, I can understand how it's a viable model, so many kids with easy access to mommy and daddies' credit card mean they'll never be without the newest downloadable outfit etc.

I hope it doesn't catch on.

I'm sorry 40 bucks for angry birds? Am I missing something?

what a fantastic idea!

I think i'd actually prefer this on vita to ps3.

It doesn't really bother me at all. If anything I'd rather it stayed on or stayed off, flashing lights are pretty distracting.

I'm not sure if Last of Us is in profit yet

Personally I'm fine using the dual shock. Part of the reason people use razors is so they don't need to deal with the constant battery replacement on the xbox ._.

@Ginkgo haha, I know that feeling all too well! I'm glad to see this doing soo well. I do wish that Ni no Kuni had such great sales figures too.

High fives all around EU friends!

An excellent game at an excellent price.

@ajay708
What do you think will happen at gamescom?

I'm so glad to see Rain get something actually!

I'm not really sure what made them even consider making this sequel. After finishing ff13 I was left feeling that I hadn't really accomplished much. Definitely not the feeling that made me love some of the previous entries in the series. Hated the combat system of ff13, and even though they were trying to tell an emotional story, it felt like it was an emotional story told by someone void of all emotion. All Lightning had going for her as a MC is #1 That she was female. #2 That she was female. I really hope that the new final fantasy can win back my love of squeenix.

Well it's a fairy minor problem which gives them more press. BONUS!

I don't think it needs too much gore personally. It adds nothing.

It's quite a shame really. Isn't it a Sony owned app? I don't understand why they wouldn't release it really.

Just a trashy guy trying to cash in on a good thing. I'm pretty sure that if the game wasn't popular he wouldn't have kicked up such a fuss.

Sorry.. saw that pic of him and instantly hated him. Book, cover.. I know.

@Splat Originally I was thinking GotY would be a battle between Beyond:Two Souls and Last of US, but having played a bit of TLoU I cannot see any other game being better than it this year. It feels like a generation defining game, it almost feels that it just wants to shout "This is what ps3 means to us!"

@JGMR Lets be honest about this whole matter though, lets say I have an excellent product with tons of potential, but for a few reasons it's not selling well, lets say theres a huge advertising opportunity guaranteed to be watched by thousauds should I:
A: Give it minimal advertising space and hope people find information about it later.
B: Showcase my item and try and get more people on board.

I understand you're saying "Look! Vita isn't dead yet I found loads of trailers", but it really shouldn't be you saying that, it should be Sony during their conference. Pretty much every Vita owner watching that conference was left with a sour taste in their mouth just because it felt like Sony pushing Vita to the side, and everyone on the sidelines was given the impression that all the bad press the Vita suffers was true.

Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love my Vita to pieces. I know it's great, I just wish other people knew it too. Instead of Sony treating it like an embarrasing uncle, dancing the robot at a family gathering.

I was hoping this was a vita exclusive... Oh well!

@belmont Hmm... Are you unable to order it via amazon or shopto? Both have it down as about £40 which I think is about 47 Euro. There are literally no game stores left open near me anymore so ordering online is pretty much my ONLY option!
I ordered Soul Sacrifice for vita too, got it for about £30, including exclusive dlc! There is no way i'd pay the same price for a digital copy

@belmont The prices generally on PSstore are pretty out of whack. Personally on new titles I would always buy a physical copy, not only do you get the manual and box, it's also cheaper most of the time. I'd only use the store if I had no other choice.

@rastamadeus and here I was under the impression that it was a simple alternative costume dlc!

i'm guessing a 70-30 split in Sony's favour

Thanks Sammy

Xbone is gonna sell loads of consoles. There are people who will happily pay $500, put up with shoddy ownership ideals etc just for the chance to play Halo. There seems to be quite alot of buzz around dead rising 3 also. I think they've taken Sony's stance at the last generation. People will buy their consoles, so they just dont give a damn.

Any news on that Guacamelee DLC? Or have I just missed it?

I wonder if i'm the only one who thought that The Crew actually looked much more fun than DriveClub.

Oh Vita!

@JavierYHL There is really no fear of xbox getting anywhere in Japan. They just don't like it. Xbox knows it and doesn't even try.

Destiny isn't an exclusive? I don't get what you're trying to get at really.

I bet the guy in the middle in the Assassins creed hood is actually Cloud.

the guy who made thos mock ups was pretty close actually!
